I thought they were holding off because of the Federation issues from 0.19.0 (or was it 0.19.1?)

You are describing symmetric encryption where both parties have the same key. There is something called asymmetric encryption that solves this. Basically you have a public key and a private key. You can give your public key to youtube, they can use that key to encrypt the symmetric key that will be used for the actual communication. The only way to decrypt the symmetric key is by using your private key, which is only known to you. So youtube can safely send it to you so you can decrypt it. Now you both have the same key and nothing was sent unencrypted.

Well your public key was sent unencrypted but that's fine because of how asymmetric encryption works.

The "simple" suite of apps was bought by zippoapps, a company that buys popular apps and adds incredibly aggressive monetization that is basically just trying to scam users. You know those "free trials" that cost like 300€ per week once the trial is up so you forget to cancel and pay a bunch of money for an app you don't want? Yeah that.

Oh so when a theraphist plays DnD at work it's fine but when I do it it's "slacking off" and "grounds for termination".

Not really. They are literally just following the law

They paid Dylan Mulvaney (a trans woman) for a sponsored instagram post and sent her a beer can with her face on it. Conservatives got mad because they are giant bigoted babies. That's it.
